Well I don’t read the manga, but the synopsis seems like an ordinary drama. But let’s see how it goes. I hope this drama is gonna be better than Introverted Boss.

Oh Wow – this is Joy’s first drama. She was on We Got Married with BtoB’s Yook Sungjae, Joy is in the group Red Velvet. I would like to se Sungjae and Joy in a drama together. They made a cute couple on WGM.

But, Aki provides his music to Crude Play under the name of producer Soichiro. Aki begins to date Riko (Sakurako Ohara), whose father runs a fruit and vegetable shop. Riko doesn’t know about Aki’s background, but she likes to listen to him hum. Riko is in a band herself, with childhood friend Yuichi and Sota. One day she is scouted by producer Soichiro.

Yeayyy…finally it in the list…cant wait…….😍😍
February 14th, 2017 at 10:13 am
Hyun Woo will perform well but I don’t know if he can break through the great impact Sato had nailed for the song writer main role.
February 16th, 2017 at 2:45 am
don’t ruin this please…
takeru was great in this, i don’t think hyunwoo can fill in his shoes.
and joy’s voice is average at best. noooo! please…
February 16th, 2017 at 11:14 am
Why main cast woman not iu… They can really have a chemistry….
February 18th, 2017 at 11:10 pm

February 19th, 2017 at 11:17 pm
It’s nice to see them cast a new female lead–tired of seeing the same people all the time.
March 2nd, 2017 at 12:20 pm

March 20th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
There’s a question I like to know. Is this drama filmed and produced already? Or is it film and broadcast at the same time? Sorry for my English.
March 22nd, 2017 at 11:34 am
this drama is going to be good one, i guess
so i will watch it
March 22nd, 2017 at 2:55 pm
The first episode is beautiful and lovely. Their chemistry is something…im so hook into the drama…cant wait for ep 2 ..i can see the love is start to begin..😍😍😁
March 23rd, 2017 at 2:06 am
The main actor and actrs is good.but not the others.
March 24th, 2017 at 6:26 am
Ep 1 and 2 were okay though I don’t really like So Rim’s character. She’s way too straightforward on her feelings which is kinda creepy. So I understand Han Gyul’s reaction.
March 24th, 2017 at 6:02 pm
viewers need to stop comparing it with the Japanese version. Korean version will have modifications in plot,characters,execution suitable for the Korean audience.
March 25th, 2017 at 7:45 pm
Seriously we can’t wait for joy’s first and feeling so proud for her, fans need to stop its comparison with other shows/characters

Lee Hyun Woo fighting… Hy vọng phim sẽ thành công!!!
March 28th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
so rim’s character was soo annoying…no chemistry at all…the story should be entertaining but i feel bad for earlier eps because of the lead actress…joy…please improve your acting…
March 29th, 2017 at 12:16 pm
It’s difficult to like a lying git even when his intentions are without malice. But it is equally difficult to develop empathy for a character that connives in order to get ahead.
The manager or whatever his role is, seem to be more a straight shooter that the artists — surprise.
Joy’s voice is nice. I didn’t pay close attention, but I think when she sang I detected the subtle use of pitch correction, certainly when she whistled it was way over the top.
She’s fresh faced, easy on the eyes and her acting is good. I’ll give her that.
March 29th, 2017 at 5:25 pm
I don’t read this manga, but there is a tag “adult” for the genre of this manga :v Maybe they will cut those scenes.
Love Joy’s smile. Her voice is always really beautiful. I look forward to seeing Joy and Lee Hyunwoo in this new drama ^^
March 30th, 2017 at 12:47 am
I don’t have any expectation when watching this drama, so I do enjoy watching this drama. It’s a stress-free drama.
March 30th, 2017 at 1:30 am
Sweet and cute….makes me smile…love it
March 31st, 2017 at 2:33 am
Wow, it’s getting very interesting, I like it😀
March 31st, 2017 at 6:54 pm
I’m so annoyed with Joy’s plastic smile,,, too much botox face & too much artificial expression,,, we need some human reactions … no offense for her fans,, but I feel it unrealistic when she keeps smiling all the time even when she cried!

The liar is just a liar, but the bassist Chan Young is a proper c*nt. His animosity towards the liar is rooted in enviousness and absolutely nothing else.
April 5th, 2017 at 9:10 am
It is a cute romantic drama, joy is cute and her singing is not bad.
However, it is hard to really any of the main characters. All the main guys have problem in their behavior, even the main female lead character that we suppose to like, I find it hard to like. She basically fall for a guy at first sight based totally on his look, she is going to give him her kidney if he ask, just because he look cute. I really find it hard to like character like this. I guess this is a comic book character for teenage girl and I am a old guy 🙂
April 6th, 2017 at 8:49 am
i really like the story and the cast except for the lead actress… she can cry..but she lacks emotions… she cant show it… first time to be disappointed in a kdrama.. i really like the story thougg… 😑
April 8th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
I’m slowly getting annoyed by Soo Rim’s character. Maybe it’s just me hating female character who cries most of the time. Soo Rim is way too childish. I know she’s just a high school student, but I’ve watched other high school dramas, at least most of the characters are kinda matured. But Soo Rim? She’s so immature and acts like she’s in middle school.
April 8th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
I agree with Hannah.
I just hate it when Soo Rim so irresponsible, esp when they perform. She’s so egocentric, doesn’t think of her two friends.
She sing very well, but so lack to show emotion.
I enjoy this drama, except Soo Rim’s characther.

April 21st, 2017 at 3:52 pm
I keep thinking that the male lead character is inspired by G-Dragon lol I know this drama based from manga, but the male lead character is same like G-Dragon
April 24th, 2017 at 8:34 am
At first, I didn’t really like So Rim character, so annoying, I dropled watching in the middle of episode 2. But the reviews said they are getting better, so I try to give a go without any bias and try to stand in neutral feeling and Voila!! I could continue watching and so far I like their interaction with one and another and see how it goes.

April 27th, 2017 at 12:48 pm
I really hate Chan Young’s character. He’s way too emotional and always trying to play victim. I mean, you agreed to be apart of Crude Play, just accept the consequences, little boy! I hate how he acts like he’s out of place when other members are trying to include him. Duh. And he always blames Han Gyeol for what happened to him. I mean, it’s not like Han Gyeol forced him to be the bass player, he accepted the offer too? He wanted to be debuted, just be grateful. He’s the one who’s being greedy, but then he said Han Gyeol took his place and took what’s his. What a twisted guy.
May 2nd, 2017 at 7:14 am
I dont know why this drama become bored. Is it because it dragging too much episode?
Sorry to say that but i love japanese film version is better.
May 2nd, 2017 at 12:47 pm
I agree with you @Hannah. Chan Young’s character has no redeeming qualities. First, he sought to monopolise So Rim as a commodity to further his personal ambition. He took advantage of her naivety. Then he objectified her; that lead to manipulating people and situations in order to get her to like him. And after he made Han Gyeol play bass on stage, he then physically restrained So Rim in a forced embrace that she attempted to break away from but couldn’t.
Chan Young is clueless about love. He’s a narcissist with psychopathic tendencies.
What is annoying, the writer offers little to counter Chan Young’s unlikable character. The writer’s main character is way too weak. And since Han Gyeol makes only timid to no moves at all, I’m not encouraged to root for the guy much as I would like to.
May 9th, 2017 at 7:34 am
This drama totally different from japan film. I waiting in this drama just like film it more conflict between han geol and so rim at the end but seem like it not gonna happen. Male lead want leave for japan because of female lead. I think that will make film more like liar and his lovers. In film male lead keep give lie to female lead but not in this drama. But this drama is more about friend then lover and crude play then mush&co. Hurm… why this drama like this.
May 10th, 2017 at 5:37 am
I love japan version then this.. ok bye.
May 10th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
I’m sorry, the kid who played the male lead should never be the lead. He looks and acts like a kid with no charm or charisma at all!! He has zero acting skills and the people who back him should all put a bullet in their heads. U fucks all failed!! It’s like young ugly, horney,ritch young bitches asked their 70 year old husbands,who sold their ass to them for money wanted to relive their lives by seeking out the boy of their dreams!!! The shit u all see and think all Koreans are sweet,loving and understanding is all bullshit!! Korean are the worst people in the world!!! They tell their kid,marry a rich guy, and status is everything,u dumb fucks. Koreans don’t care if ur ugly,all they care about how muck u have and how can’t u help their family.
May 11th, 2017 at 12:01 pm
It is an average drama for me. It is not too good and also not too bad, young people today are like those in the drama.
Japanese version are totally different then
May 20th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
I totally agree that this is an average drama, nothing too bad but there is nothing to attract attention. The ending episode is especially weak, 20-30% of old clips cut from earlier episodes. It is almost as if the producer make this whole drama to introduce the female lead as an actress.
June 14th, 2017 at 5:51 pm
I really enjoy watching episodes 1 to 10 but after that I get bored on the next episodes but hoping to finish it until episode 16. I really enjoy the songs on this drama.

February 20th, 2018 at 7:20 pm
This drama is missing something when it comes to plot. This girls falls for a guy that she doesn’t have a clue about and no curiosity to really know him. The lead actor’s character seems to be a mixed bag of ??? who knows what. I’m only on ep 5, hope it improves.
February 20th, 2018 at 8:03 pm
I also think the plot is stupid. This girl will sing in public in a heartbeat–on the street (which is the hardest), at school, but can’t sing on stage? Most people who can’t sing on stage, cannot sing in “public” at all–regardless on stage or in a classroom full of kids or a street with hundreds of people staring at her.
July 28th, 2019 at 9:17 pm
Omg I love this drama
January 25th, 2020 at 2:30 am
The Liar and His Lover is such a sweet and lovely drama. So much heart and emotion. It was like a rom-com mixed with a baby melodrama. Very nice!
